Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PhotoNodes at 100% against XbotGo's 32%. PhotoNodes also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 15). XbotGo's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 4) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
